OLC Conferences

The Online Learning Consortium offers three annual conferences, each focusing on a different area of interest in online learning and located in a different region of the country. You won't want to miss our 20th anniversary celebration of the Annual International Conference on Online Learning, taking place in Orlando - October 29-31, 2014.

Press may apply for a Press Pass to any or all of the conference here.

This conference brings together practitioners and researchers, administrators, instructional designers, faculty developers, library and support people, instructors, and students to try to make sense of the fast growing and rapidly changing field of online and blended learning. It is geared to both experienced professionals and interested newcomers who hail from a variety of work sectors, including higher education, K-12 education, continuing education, business, government, health care, professional associations, and nonprofit organizations. Together we will share the latest information on research findings, current practice, emerging trends, and promising new technologies, and explore what online and blended learning portends for ourselves, our institutions, and our society.

This joint Symposium of Online Learning Consortium and MERLOT is designed to bring together individuals interested in the review and evaluation of online teaching and learning technologies. The symposium, focusing on the technologies that drive online learning effectiveness, will continue to highlight research, applications, and effective practices of significant and noteworthy technological tools.
